PROBABLY AS FAR AWAY
FROM CIVILISATION YOU’LL EVER GET.

We offer something different from most tropical islands and it’s not about five-star luxury. If it’s serenity, close encounters with nature and a family of staff you crave, then the Manta Resort might be just the place for you.

“In my eyes it’s so wonderful, it’s taken me over a week to find the words to talk about it!…discover a life you never knew you were missing. We did just that and changed the way we look at the world.” – Megan S | More reviews

THE MANTA FAMILY

Meet Iddi, one of our team of service fundis, and one member of the close knit that makes up the Manta Family. He might very well be the one taking care of you while you are here. Iddi is Pemba. Get to know him and he’ll tell you everything about Pemba, his village, his wife and the life on the island. And he’ll do anything in his power to make your stay a memorable one. Meet Iddi in this documentary
